Mr. Kenji Tofuku's family business has been producing tea since 1955 and has been focusing exclusively on the organic cultivation of his teas for many years. The tea garden is located in Makizono in Kirishima Prefecture on the Japanese south island of Kyushu at an altitude of about 350m. Here you will find ideal conditions for growing and producing tea of the highest quality.

The Organic Gyokuro is a slightly steamed Gyokuro, which was previously fully shaded for about 24 days. It is produced exclusively from the Saemidori tea bush variety, which is used in Japan for higher quality teas.

Organic Gyokuro is slightly stronger in the cup than other Gyokuros, but still offers a soft, full-bodied and complex taste without being bitter at all.
